Whether you’re in search of beachside living or simply want somewhere you can commute into Melbourne from, look no further than St Kilda.

Enjoying the good life in St Kilda

Many people move to St Kilda to restore some life balance – and it’s not too difficult to achieve.

Being in the great outdoors plays a crucial part of living in this suburb, especially as St Kilda beach is right on your doorstep and there are plenty of parks and open spaces to enjoy.

Acland Street is one of St Kilda’s trendiest places to be – not only will you find foods from all corners of the world, but the area is also famous for its cake shops. You could indulge in some retail therapy or catch up with friends for coffee – it’s up to you!

The Lower Esplanade is another St Kilda hotspot. It is home to the world-famous Luna Park and here you will also find the Palais Theatre, a popular local concert venue.

If you’d rather keep away from the crowds, head down to St Kilda Botanic Gardens on Blessington Street for some down time. Take a picnic and enjoy a stroll – it’s hard to believe you’re just a stone’s throw away from the Victorian capital.
